News is what somebody somewhere wants to suppress; all the rest is advertising.

Will you be my pollution partner?

I’ll soon have the chance to do a bit of scientific research, and I was wondering if any loyal readers in Mount Dennis or Weston might be interested in participating.

My plan is to build low-cost (no cost to you) sensors that will detect noise and dust pollution. The sensors would automatically post data online so that we could all see how trains, construction, and traffic affect (or don’t affect) our lives.

To participate, you’ll need wifi, a place outdoors where you can put a little box, and some patience with me.
